Another amazing E3 has come and gone. My key takeaway from this year's show is that the upcoming year will bring the beginning of 3D gaming. Sure we've had some previous forays like Nintendo's Virtual Boy, but you can really see how Sony and Nintendo are going to be pushing the technology hard. After getting a chance to try each company's approach to entering the 3rd dimension, I definitely think Nintendo has it right.
Nintendo's E3 announcements provided a steady stream of nostalgic bliss. I can't remember a year where I was more excited about the lineup, and the revival of classic franchises like Kid Icarus, Donkey Kong Country, and Pilotwings, on top of updates to Zelda, Mario Sports, and more means that this will be an exciting year for Nintendo fans.

E3 is one of my favorite times of the year, and this year's expo isn't disappointing. While there has been an avalanche of amazing news, the Halo fan in me who spent countless hours in college playing Halo multiplayer is particularly giddy about the prospect of some interplanetary dog-fighting. Check out this trailer from Halo: Reach to see what we have to look forward to.
